HARD
For a concave lens of focal length f, the relation between object and image distance u and v, respectively, from its pole can best be represented by (u=v is the reference line):
EASY
A ray deviates at 90° after suffering reflection from a mirror. The angle of incidence is
EASY
Red light differs from blue light as they have :
HARD
The relative permittivity of distilled water is 81. The velocity of light in it will be: (Given μr=1
EASY
Two plane mirrors are inclined to each other at an angle of 60°. A point object is placed in between them. The total number of images produced by both the mirrors is
HARD

The following graph depicts the inverse of magnification versus the distance between the object and lens data for a setup. The focal length of the lens used in the setup is

A point source of light S, placed at a distance 60 cm infront of the centre of a plane mirror of width 50 cm, hangs vertically on a wall. A man walks infront of the mirror along a line parallel to the mirror at a distance 1.2 m from it (see in the figure). The distance between the extreme points where he can see the image of the light source in the mirror is__cm

A girl is standing 7 m from a plane mirror. The distance of the girl from her image in the mirror is
MEDIUM
A man is 160 cm tall and his eyes are 15 cm below the top of his head. In order to see his entire height, right from the top to head, he uses a plane mirror kept at a distance of 1 m from him. The minimum length of the plane mirror required is
MEDIUM
Car B overtakes another car A at a relative speed of 40 m s-1. How fast will the image of car B appear to move in the mirror of focal length 10 cm fitted in car A, when the car B is 1.9 m away from the car A?
HARD
A ray of light, travelling in the direction 12i^+3 j^, is incident on a plane mirror. After reflection, it travels along the direction 12i^-3 j^. The angle of incidence is
EASY
The speed of light in denser medium is _____ than speed in rarer medium.
EASY
What is the minimum size of mirror required for a 6ft tall person to be able to see a full length image?
EASY
A beam of light from a source L is incident normally on a plane mirror fixed at a certain distance x from the source. The beam is reflected back as a spot on a scale placed just above the source L. When the mirror is rotated through a small angle θ, the spot of the light is found to move through a distance y on the scale. The angle θ is given by
MEDIUM

A point source of light, S is placed at a distance L in front of the center of plane mirror of width d which is hanging vertically on a wall. A man walks in front of the mirror along a line parallel to the mirror, at a distance 2L as shown below. The distance over which the man can see the image of the light source in the mirror is:

A point object is placed mid-way between two plane mirrors distance 'a' apart. The plane mirror forms an infinite number of images due to multiple reflection. The distance between the nth order image formed in the two mirrors is
EASY
To get three images of a single object, one should have two plane mirrors at an angel of
MEDIUM

Light incident normally on a plane mirror attached to a galvanometer coil retraces backwards as shown in the figure below. A current in the coil produces a deflection of 3.5° of the mirror. What is the displacement of the reflected spot of light on a screen placed 1.5 m away?
